U.S. government’s comments opposing Canada’s digital services tax proposal

The United States urges Canada to abandon any plans for a unilateral measure.

The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) today submitted comments to the Canadian government expressing opposition to Canada’s plan to enact a digital services tax.

The USTR comments [PDF 111 KB] state that the United States has “serious concerns” about Canada plans to enact a digital services tax and in particular about measures that “single out American firms for taxation while effectively excluding national firms engaged in similar lines of business.”
